England couldn't have hand-picked a better draw. Should make the Quarter-Finals... before being routinely humped by Brazil or Germany.

We couldn't have picked it much better ourselves. I should add 'on paper'. Cue everybody suddenly researching the Panama and Tunisia squads and qualifying results.

Doesn't really matter, as second place is just as good as first in that group. The final match could well be England Reserves vs Belgium Reserves.

My early predictions:

Brazil to beat Germany in the Final. Uruguay to be the dark horses and make the Semis.

Is Germany's group the only one with three top 20 ranked teams?

Looks the toughest group to me.

England have, yet again, managed this find themselves in an easy group. Mind you, I thought that with Iceland and co.

Argentina, Iceland, Nigeria and Croatia is most interesting group I think.

If Argentina can't improve on their Commebol games they'll struggle to get out of that.

Anyone thinking of going to the World Cup? I’d have no desire to watch England, but just to be there would be great even as a complete neutral.
